Alice Lake is one of Squamish's sweet spots, surrounded by towering mountains, dense forests and grassy areas. There are four fresh water lakes that dominate the landscape and make swimming and fishing very enjoyable pastimes.

Parking:
Parking Details & Carpooling Post:
Carpools of 4+ people will get directed to the Main lot, whereas, cars of 1-3 will have to park out near the highway. Regardless of when you arrive, so PLEASE CARPOOL! Feel free to post in the Vancouver Region 5Peaks Group if you are looking to carpool.
There's VERY limited parking, and NO ONE IS ALLOWED TO PARK ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD INSIDE THE PARK. Please pay attention to the parking attendants, and only park where you are advised to park. THANK YOU ahead of time.
There are 3 main places to park.
#1 - The PRIME SPOTS. Right next to the race start, which has limited spots, and it will be filled by 7:15am latest.
#2 - The main parking lots at Alice Lake, for racers arriving between 7 & 830am. All racers HAVE TO ARRIVE AND BE PARKED BY 8:30AM, as check-in CLOSES at 8:45am, and check-in/race start is at the South end of the lake, approx 800M from the main lot. This parking lot is great because it's located next to the main washrooms and there's less likely to be bathroom line-ups.
#3 - Just off the highway, in the overflow lot, and down BOTH sides of the North no exit lane. Yes, we're allowed to park on the sides of this road, and this road only. Parking in this overflow lot/road, is 2.25KMs from the race start. Pro tip: This is an excellent warm-up, and you can visit the main bathrooms in the main parking lot on your way to avoid the portables line-ups!
Cars of 3 or less people will be directed to park the farthest away, in our 3rd option parking areas. Sorry - but that's just the way it is. In this day and age with the technology we have, there's no excuses for not being able to find a friend or random to ride-share with. Pro tip - you don't have to ride share from home, you can always meet up in Squamish, at the Capra Running parking lot, or at the Canadian Tire, where there are plenty of spots.
Drop Bags:
There will be a tent set up where you can leave a bag for after the race. We do not have a full drop bag system in place, and we ask that you do not leave any valuables in your bags.
Music:
We are not allowed to have any amplified music in Alice Lake to disturb campers and other guests. Yes, this is not as much fun, but we'll make do. Please keep other park users in mind when arriving early, and keep your volume to a minimum.
